custom pet portrait

Like a lot of people, I'm partial to personalized gifts...and it doesn't get any more personalized than a custom portrait of your pet. Yes, it's a bit pricey, but I don't think I could ever get tired of staring at a painting of Mr. Pancho himself! His big, soulful eyes just kill me. Must bookmark for next year...

pancho and the hide-a-squirrel

Have you heard of the "Hide A Squirrel"? Apparently it's a dog toy that's part puzzle, part stuffed animal. And to top it off, it's supposed to keep dogs entertained for long periods of time. So of course we had to buy one for Pancho. And of course I had to take a few photos to document the whole thing.

dog bowtie

These tartan bowtie collars are so handsome...hopefully they come in extra large for Pancho next Christmas... 

puppy training

Last night, Kyle and I took Pancho to his first puppy obedience class*, where a little dachshund named Oscar stole my heart. He looked exactly like the one on this card, minus the striped French sweater.

*In case you were wondering, Pancho did extremely well since he had already mastered "sit" a few weeks ago on his own. He seemed to still enjoy showing off in true Pancho fashion though;)
